Zimbabwe Ministers all 'heartless'

In reality Zimbabwe is a heavily divided Country and the status quo shall remain invariable for generations to come if the current crop of young people fail to demand what rightfully belongs to them. The crooked regime is apparently not prepared to rectify the imbalances in the distribution of natural resources. The pressing question is for how long are we going to wait by the sidelines while our country is being taken to the dogs by none other than the nonagenarian himself. The future for many if not all is bleak, inaction to confront greedy villains will haunt the whole nation for the rest of our lives.

Their children receive education overseas same applies to medical treatment, why are the local facilities not good enough for the Government Ministers. How could you preside over something without confidence in? And brazenly proclaim is good for the poverty stricken masses, why is you and your family an exception? Are you holier than thou. That is hypocrisy at its best and be forewarned the Tiger has awakened and shall soon strike where it hurts the most if the prejudicial attitude is in perpetuity. The Country exports virtually nothing as a result of maladministration and looting with impunity, perhaps the entire administration needs deliverance of some kind as they appear to be detached completely from reality. It's like they live on mars, they do not see the Country wide potholes and the dilapidated hospitals. Service delivery has become an enemy of the State.

The first thing they are quick to mention when cornered about the deterioration of the standard of living are SANCTIONS. These sanctions were not rolled out nationally but strategically targeted the few at the helm who are responsible for crimes against humanity. To start with, Zimbabwe is not the only Country to be slapped with sanctions and this is nothing compared to what South Africa underwent during apartheid but their economy remained robust irrespective of the harsh sanctions imposed by the international community. In Zimbabwe the greedy animalistic Ministers hide behind sanctions to bring the country to its knees economically. They hatched this plot donkey years ago so that they could fund their lavish lifestyles with totally disregard of service delivery.

My final wish is to see a political party change course and adopt federalism as its policy to safe guard the interests of the marginalized region and ensure locals are given first preference when it comes to jobs even in the Police force, prisons and border immigration officers. These people should have strong identities and emotions to the region to serve its people fairly without victimization and teargassing of innocent children etc. God helps those who help themselves, with one voice let us say Mugabe must fall he is the cause of all the problems and the solution is in his removal by any means possible.
